ge PUBLISHER'S Ne NOTICE. 


THE use of Standard Phonography. in reporting near 12,009 pages 
during the past year a enables us to assure the phonographic pub- 
lic that Sta up| ‘is really a great improvement upon the 
ie , or English , Phonograpby. phy. Of course, all its advantages do no! 
+ r in the gry weet Biographical Sketch. Important, however, as 

its advantages are, we would have been unwilling to disturb the har- 
- mony of the phonographie world by publishiag a system which the 
majority of the phonographers would be glad to use and which has 
served us so well, had not the Messrs. Pitman themselves commenced 
the work of experiment and change. Mr. Benn Pitman, within eigh- 
teen months, has introduced an /-hook (which, however, is not distinct 
from the sha-hook! and whose use must be very limited), and other- 
wise departed from the principles of phonography as explained in the 
9th edition of Isaac Pitman’s Manual of Phonography. 

- During the past year, Mr. Isaac Pitman has also been engaged in 
_ proposing various changes in Phonography ; and when his experiments 
_ will be completed no one can tell. No longer ago than 1852, he finished 
 aseriés of experiments and changes in Phonography. While some of 
the changes were improvements,-so far as the corresponding style was 
concerned, and rendered the expression of certain words easier than by 
the previous (8th) edition of Phonography, yet, on the whole, they 
were a great step backward in respect of reporting. But whatever 
those changes were, it was proposed that they should be the last. 
But about fourteen moaths ago Mr. Pitman re-opened the question of 
the improvement of phonography. We then concluded to postpone 
for a year the publication of a Manual of Phonography, which was 
nearly ready to put into the hands of the printer—having good cause 
to fear that the work might be rendered obsolete by the time it could 
be put on sale. A year having passed and the experiments still going 
forward, we have concluded to bring out that system, which is not an 
untried one, but one that our phonographic experience (unequaled by 
_ that of either of the Messrs. Pitman) has convinced us isa great ad- 
vancement upon both the Corresponding and Reporting Styles of the 
9th edition of English Phonography—it being fully adapted to the 
wants of the correspondent and reporter, aud rendering possible and 
easy a perfectly phonetic representation of the English language as 
spoken by Americans, and not compelling us to indicate pronuncia- 
tions which our best orthoépic authorities stamp as erroneous and 
vulgar. The Hand-Book of Standard Phonography is being rapidly 
stereotyped, and will shortly be on sale, (by February 1st, 1857.) The 
author, of course, believes that it will be pronounced superior to any 
work preceding it.
